00:00It's title time, people. The University of Miami Hurricanes at home at Hard Rock

00:06as an underdog to the Indiana Hoosiers. And by the way, Joe, when you look back in the past,

00:11in those games in the 80s and 90s where Miami was home, a lot of those games,

00:14they were the underdogs to Nebraska and also Oklahoma, despite coming away with victories here.

00:19But usually, three points, four points, somewhere in that range.

00:22We're seeing most outlets show in this game, seven and a half.

00:25And by the way, DraftKings this morning at 8.07 a.m.,

00:27they went back to eight and a half points as a favorite towards Indiana.

00:31If I look at the ticket counts here, roughly only three out of every 10 tickets coming in towards

00:35the Miami Hurricanes and a total listed at 47 and a half.

00:40Miami's a good football team, but apparently Indiana hasn't had any struggles this year

00:44at Penn State and against Ohio State.

00:46They should easily walk away with a victory in the national championship game on Miami's home field.

00:52Am I getting that right, Joe?

00:53Well, the way they're betting it and have been betting it, Donnie,

00:58you would think they already know what the outcome of the game is.

01:01And Miami shouldn't even bother showing up, right?

01:04I mean, why bother?

01:05Indiana has rolled Alabama.

01:08Well, listen, I can make the argument Alabama shouldn't have been in the playoff, number one, right?

01:14Oh, they beat Oregon.

01:16You got to be kidding me.

01:17Oregon might have been one of the most overhyped teams that we have seen in a very, very long time.

01:23Plus, they had already seen them once.

01:24They understand.

01:25In fact, the only situation in which both of these teams have a common opponent was Ohio State, Donnie.

01:33And correct me if I'm wrong here.

01:35Indiana struggled big time with Ohio State.

01:38You know who didn't?

01:39Miami.

01:40So I don't know what we think.

01:43And this is all, you know, maybe they are the greatest team ever to be assembled in college football.

01:47But, boy, oh, boy, the idea that Miami is just going to lay down and they're going to get run over.

01:53When they haven't gotten run over, I can't remember the last time Miami got run over by anybody, Donnie.

01:59Forget about this year.

02:01Go years back.

02:02So, yeah, I'm not sure Indiana is that team that's going to do it either.

02:06Go years back.
